Thanks for the replies, as usual the mathematics explains all! The question arose because we were practising the stall on the turn from base to final. After saying the tendancy of most people was to roll wings level before recovering, he was trying to explain which wing would drop as you rolled out at the point of stalling. I don't know if that makes it sound any fairer or not! I quite like the idea giving him a kick and saying "That's from John Farley", just to see the bewildered expression that followed .

Thanks again.
